| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results. | S-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins. | S-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses. |
